Well once again I felt an urge to share how things are going and maybe get a little socializing taking place here on the Gordy Board.
I have been attending a fellowship on Friday nights that has discontinued and many who were attending it have gone to attend the International House Of Prayer In Federal Way. That has become an up and coming ministry in the Seattle area. I attended once when they were in their inception but it did not impress me at the time as something I was interested in, they have grown since then. I am not looking for a church so I have no motivation to go see what they are about...maybe later.
I worked Saturday a half day and the weather here has been nice, so we barbecued outside on the fire pit and had a fire after wards. It gets cool after the sun goes down so the fire was nice.
Sunday (today) I got out in the yard and cleaned up around. The weather was cool but nice and I worked carrying things to put away and cleaned up messes and pulled weeds. I planted some more parsley to the existing parsley bed. I add it to my soups and other dishes, it grows easily. I went into the garden and pulled up the dried out broccoli plants and composted them. I see the mole has stayed in my neighbors yard this spring..he must know I bought traps to use this year..moles are so smart.
I feel kind of sluggish. like I lack energy but I just go out and work though it, this usually happens in my off season. I am determined this year to get long standing projects done and getting out early in the year is the key. They boys are not going to have their above ground pool so we will be tearing that out this year. The oldest has chickens this year with his girl friend, I dump grass in their pen as I walk by and they usually thank me. All our boys are at SPU and live at home, they study all the time.
I have filled holes in the road the last few days on our private road. I just dumped old half hardened motar in them and it works pretty well,(your welcome to come look) I always have old mortar left over from tuck point jobs on chimneys. I used to fix the road with asphalt but this is a quick fix. One visitor hassled me about not putting up cones when we fixed the road..I just apologized to him..we go quite a kick out of that
Cones...too funny! He was inconvenienced like one minute.
I have to get into my garage and into my storage sheds, I did get one shed cleaned up last year..I have to get rid of more "stuff"..I am a collector and so I have stuff and more stuff. I have a lot of contractor tools also and every year I build better places to store everything so everything has a place. For instance I have three contractor wheel barrows and two plastic carts and probably 8 shovels, and a pitch fork for every occasion...stuff.
I got a bunch of free railroad ties last year and need to install the last half of them, replacing old ones.., we have a pile of wood in our driveway, the list goes on
So what have you been doing? Go ahead brag a little, share what you have done or projects you hope to get accomplished this spring/summer. Let us hear from you even if it is a line or two.
See ya next time then
